Our Communities of Practice serve as vital spaces for students, faculty, and staff to connect, share knowledge, and drive meaningful change. With various communities currently in development, we’re excited to engage everyone in this important work.

Stay tuned for updates as we continue to build a more inclusive and equitable environment for all!

Disability Inclusion Group

History 

The Disability Inclusion Group (DIG) was formed in 2021 to provide community members with disabilities an opportunity to:

  • To support and empower students, staff, and faculty with disabilities at KPU
  • To increase awareness, affirmation and education around disability issues
  • To challenge ableism and reduce stigma
  • To contribute to the development of a supportive, anti-ableist culture and to help create a more accessible, inclusive, and safer campus community
  • To demonstrate KPU’s commitment to enrich and enliven the diversity of its community, including people with disabilities.

Upon the creation of the Accessibility Committee in 2023, DIG transformed into a Community of Practice in 2024.
